Abstract
⺠MWNTs are selected for study of the systemic toxicity and the potential influence on red spinach. ⺠Microscopic observation revealed some adverse effects on root and leaf. ⺠Cell damage were detected on 15 days after the exposure to MWNTs. ⺠ROS increase ceased once ascorbic acid was added into media. ⺠Oxidative stress seems to be the key element responsible for causing the toxicity.
